remains, took them to the ship. and
ut daybreak dropped down the river
aud disappeared. Many believe
this story to be true, and that If the
grave was opened an empty vault
would be found, for the coffin, nc
cording to account, was placed in u
solidly constructed stone vault six
feet beneath the surface.
Halt q dozen novels have been
constructed upnn or woven in with
all that is known of the history OF
the Female Stranger, aud with so
much fiction aud imagination have
still further served 10 confuse and
obscure the real facts. One OF these
stories is entitled "NarratlOn of
John Trust, translated from his
MS" This purpOrts to have been
done by "Wm. f. Carne," and the
latter says by way of preface:
81 owe it to candOr to say that
the memories of the oldest inhabit-
ants, the newspaper tiies and John
Trnst's narrative are in perfect ac
cord, but | do not intend
thar it shall rest on my voucher.
aud | distinctly avow that if pI OOts
of it's credibility are not found in
the narrative itself, they are found
nowhere else"
John Trusts narrative is, think,
fiction, built upon the mystery of
the Female Stranger, but it is quite
a plausible one, aud adds greatly to
the interest in the matter and its
fascination. In this story the Fe-
male Stranger is Blanche Forden
aud the hero meets hel in Marti
nique. This is his description of
her, aud 1t will be observed it does
not fully accord with the usually
"eceived idea of her appearances by
=, the Alexandria and Virginia people
generally:
"StateIy, yet graceful, her queen
| ly form rose from the undulatiOn
which acknowledged my greeting.
] She seemed indeed the mould Oi
form, the union OF elegance and
grace before nndreamei of. Her
eye diamond when she listened,
| flashed like sword when she spoke
add Grecian nose, perfectly tenn.
| niue IN the SOtineSs OF its outline,
relieved the masculine swelling of
the upper lip and made wOmaniy
the entire contour OF her lace. Her
bair lay in It's raven briliancy as if
it bad been chizrlrd upon her noble
forehead. On such features repOsr
wore an air of command and emo
lion took Stateliupss."
+. The husband in this narrative was
"a Dr.. Wroe, who possessed claiI.
toyani powers, and spirited Miss
or Lady FOr,ien away from her
lover. John TIust, aud brought bel
Ia Alexandria. She declared that
she had loved JOhu Trust, aud thai
The marriage which had taken place
on the vessel WAS null; as she was
incapable OF self-lc"ntrOl, bnt aS
sue was dying of broken heart
she whispered to WrOe thai she had
learned 10 love him tor his devotion
aud maniinpSS, and her last words
were "my husband" the first AMI
the OBlv-time she ever uttered il.
